Introduction: Now offering Zoom weddings during Stay At Home time! I am a former United Methodist pastor, ordained in the Christian (Disciples of Christ). I do both religious and non-religious ceremonies. I love spending time with people at the most important times of their lives during weddings and funerals. Colorado has started to tighten restrictions on who may officiate a wedding. You can find that list here on the state regulations site at .colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/performing-marriage As ordained clergy, my signature on your marriage license is authorized by the state.

Rev Teri was great. We live on the other side of the country, but wanted to get married in Breckenridge, Colorado. She took the time to get to know us through calls and text messages. She provided her proposed service outline and was open to changes. It was just our immediate family and she mingled well, asked lots of good questions and made everyone feel right at home. We also wanted a wedding official who was from a traditional Christian denomination. Teri has a masters of divinity from a Methodist seminary and has pastored UMC churches - so that also made her a great fit for what we were looking for. And she drove several hours each way from her home, but the fee she was charging did not change. Overall, we’d highly recommend.

Details: Wedding • Christian • 20 guests or fewer • Help writing vows will be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

My wife and I had a great experience with Teri and would recommend her to anyone searching for a wedding Officiant. She was easy to talk to, transparent about her process, and did a fantastic job with our ceremony. She provided us with a good baseline for our ceremony while allowing us to make our own tweaks as we saw fit. She was engaging and brought just the right amount of personality to our service.

Details: Wedding • Non-denominational (mentions God) • 51 - 100 guests • Help writing vows will be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Reverend Teri was a perfect officiant for our daughter's wedding. She was kind, dependable and had a nice sense of humor. She helped us with a service that was a blend of the bride and groom's religions. Thank you, Reverend Teri!
